No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection. Thank you for supporting the Board.

No, it isn't Dino Martens. A rumor was started a few years back that Dino Martens designed this type of glass for AVeM. The rumor was repeated in a couple of books, then soon was considered to be true. I wrote Marc Heiremans, an authority on Martens, 2-3 years ago to ask if any of the tutti-frutti pieces had been made by Martens. He said no.

After looking at the blue underside of your bowl, I am not certain that it is Murano glass. The base doesn't look polished and the circles are not something I would expect for Murano. I'd like to read other people's thoughts on this.
